Zhang Yue was giggling foolishly, and suddenly Liu Jin brought the people in. When he saw Zhang Yue's appearance, he asked, "What are the happy events for you?"

"It's a matter of getting rich..." Zhang Yue looked at Liu Jin and laughed even happier. He originally wanted to find Liu Jin, but now he came to the door by himself, which saved a lot of effort. He quietly pulled Liu Jin, walked aside, and asked in a low voice: "Can you know, how many soybean reserves are there in Guanzhong's official warehouse now?"

Liu Jin shook his head ignorantly.

The Han government has been purchasing soybeans for a long time.

This is because, since the Warring States Period, people have chosen to plant soybeans on fallow land to achieve the effect of fertilizing the fields.

This is an experience that the working people have explored in countless practices. Planting beans on land where ground power is exhausted can speed up the recovery of ground power.

Therefore, a large number of soybean products are produced in the north every year.

However, the people generally do not eat beans.

Therefore, the central government purchased the beans at an extremely low price and then used them as feed.

The biggest use of beans is just to use them as feed.

As for eating?

Unless in the era of famine, the people have no choice, no one will eat beans and make them feel uncomfortable.

As a result, a large amount of soybeans were stocked up in the Han Dynasty's official warehouse all year round.

Zhang Yue once saw in Lantai's archives that in Aocang, Luoyang, there were at least one million stones of soybeans lying in the official warehouse and getting moldy.

The warehouse officials will drag these things out to bask in the sun when they receive the order to transport soybeans.

And in Guanzhong, there are more soybean reserves!

Just in Xiliu Cang and Jitian Cang near Chang'an, there are at least 500,000 or 600,000 shi of soybeans.

"At least one million stones!" Zhang Yue rubbed his hands excitedly and told Liu Jin.

"Dou Yishi, how much does it cost to balance the government's squatter?" Zhang Yue asked in a low voice.

Liu Jin continued to shake his head. It was only in the past two months that he began to care about the prices of major grains on the market.

As for soybeans? In general, there is no need to sell them in the market!

Because beans are basically raw materials for feed.

Zhang Yue knew it in his mind, and he raised his tone a little: "One stone is only twenty-five cents..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Yue couldn't help but lick his tongue.

The Han Dynasty made four jin of stone, one jin was thirty jin, and one jin was 120 jin, which was about thirty kilograms in later generations.

In other words, the price per kilogram of soybeans is about 0.8 cents.

It is equivalent to saying that a kilogram of soybeans is only worth up to three grams of pure copper. (A kilogram of 16 taels, one liang and twenty-four zhu, and a five zhu coin weighs up to 4.5 grams, and the minting coins contain a lot of impurities...)

Can there be a cheaper soybean price than this?

"I would like to ask Your Highness to Wen Shaofu and the Grand Secretary to see if you can sell a batch of soybeans to Xinfeng at a preferential price..." Zhang Yue rubbed his hands and said, "Not much, it's enough to have a hundred thousand stones first!"

The biggest advantage of dealing with state institutions is that you can be owed credit.

One hundred thousand stones of soybeans are actually only two million and five million yuan at most.

Of course, Zhang Yue could give out the money, but the problem was, since he could owe credit, why should he pay?

The Grand Minister Nong and Shaofuqing must not care, this mere 100,000 shi of soybeans.

In this way, the capital invested in raw materials is zero.

The rest only needs to take more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan and ask the craftsmen to build an oil pressing workshop.

Hire some workers and start work.

The oil pressing industry has no technical content. There was a documentary called "China on the Bite of the Tongue", and in one of the episodes there appeared an ancient oil pressing workshop.

As long as soybean oil is squeezed out, it is flowing gold.

One hundred thousand stones of soybeans, squeeze one thousand stones of soybean oil, should not be a problem.

The cheapest oils on the market now cost thousands of dollars per stone. A little better quality can be sold for dozens of dollars per pound.

It means that Xinfeng's official industries can immediately obtain a stable objective income.

At least, it is more than enough to pay the salary of officials!

Liu Jin listened, although he didn't understand Zhang Yue's purpose, he nodded and said, "I will ask someone to write to Shaofuqing and Grand Minister of the People..."

This is not a big deal, nor is it a troublesome thing.

"By the way, Zhang Qing..." Liu Jin suddenly remembered the purpose of his coming and asked Zhang Yue: "Why don't you go to the interview and take a look?"

Since the off-road weight-bearing test the day before yesterday, Liu Jin's reputation has been hit in Guanzhong.

Countless scholars, officials and literati sang praises.

Even his father sent someone from Yong County to commend his behavior. His grandfather even ordered a reward of 100 silk and 10 beauties.

The emperor of the Han Dynasty has a very obvious meaning. You should give birth to a few more great-grandchildren for me!

Liu Jin tasted the sweetness, and of course he was very concerned about and rushed to the public examination interview.

Before dawn this morning, he got up and walked around the palace.

At the beginning of the interview, he squatted in the government office and observed the interview situation.

As a result, he was busy there for a long time and was shocked to find that as the chief of Xinfeng, Zhang Yue stayed in the county government and didn't know what he was doing.

He came to take a look.

But unexpectedly, Zhang Yue was giggling in the county yard.

"I don't have to go..." Zhang Yue waved his hand and said, "The so-called interview is actually the opportunity for me to let the officials below choose their own subordinates..."

"Huh?" Liu Jin nodded. He had heard Zhang Yue say this long ago.

During this interview, the officials selected were basically for Hu Jian, Chen Wannian and Sang Jun to fill the vacant seats that had been hung with seals, and at the same time slightly strengthen the strength of various institutions.

Of course, these three people need to personally identify and choose.

Only when they picked the rest would they be diverted to the town pavilion below to help the students.

only……

"Don't Zhang Qing choose a few people?" Liu Jin asked.

"Of course I will choose..." Zhang Yue smiled and said, "But I ask myself that I have a certain view of others, so there is no hurry..."

As long as the interview is over and everyone is gathered together for military training, within one day, Zhang Yue can understand everyone's details clearly. The golden fingers with no room are so powerful.

He can solidify all people's names, hometowns, hobbies, personalities and personalities in his mind.

You can read as you wish.

Zhang Yue even planned to build a personnel archive and other affairs in his mind.

In this way, all the information and records of all officials in the county can be archived.

Just like computers in later generations, if you want to see someone's information, you can read it with just a thought.

Mom no longer has to worry about me admitting the wrong person or remembering the wrong thing.

Liu Jin was stunned when he heard this. He remembered that Zhang Yue did seem to have the ability to see people like ghosts and gods.

Up to now, all the officials he chose are talents!

Even the old fried dough stick Chen Wannian, who was once a little disdainful, has now shown extraordinary abilities.
